"Abandon all hope, ye who enter here."
For the brave souls that decide to read this fanfic, here's a Drinking Game to help make it bearable, or perhaps fun... well, you'll get drunk, trust us. Play at your own risk.
Simple Version:
- Take a shot every time a word is mispeled, and pray to whatever god you believe in that you don't get alcohol poisoning before you're halfway through chapter one.
- Allow the people at your funeral to share each drink following your untimely demise.
- If you don't want to die, drink the entirety of the bottle, smash it, then stab whatever device you're reading the story on with its remains.

You won't make it to the halfway mark. Beware of possible alcohol poisoning. If you go for a non-alcoholic variation of the game, be within quick reach of a bathroom. For water drinkers, beware of water poisoning.
There's also a sequel to My Immortal! Written by a so-called 'friend' of Tara's, as seen on her profile. You can also do this same drinking game with that...but with a different main character/author insert.
